FlexiCase™
The FlexiCase seal is a metal-cased rotary lip seal suitable for applications where elastomeric lip seals fail and mechanical seals are too costly. The filled PTFE element provides greater chemical compatibility, wider temperature ranges, higher pressure capabilities, and longer life than elastomeric lip seals. FlexiCase seals:
• Can run in dry and abrasive media environments
• Are available in single, dual and triple lip designs
• Are designed to press fit into a counter bore

The Parker FlexiCase is a rotary lip seal that features an ID lip that seals dynamically on a shaft and metal casing on its OD to seal statically press-fit into a bore. A gasket is sandwiched between layers of sealing lips and the can to seal off the potential leak path. Since the lip is not spring energized, the radial lip contact forces are lower than a rotary FlexiSeal, which allows the seal to function at much higher surface speeds (up to 10,000 sfpm).

The seals are manufactured from a wide variety of PTFE composites and other machinable plastic materials. Standard gasket choices are fluorocarbon, nitrile, EPDM and Armstrong reinforced paper. Users can choose between stainless steel, cold-rolled steel, zinc plated cold-rolled steel and aluminum. This broad foundation of standard gasket, metal and PTFE materials can be tailored to suit nearly all applications. Standard and Nonstandard FlexiCase profiles are precision machined to fit inch and metric gland geometries. FlexiCase seals are used in demanding applications where the operating conditions exceed the capabilities of elastomeric seals.
